THE GERMAN REIcHsTAG DEFIEs THE
IRON CHANCELLOR,

And Insists on Having It's own Way for
Once--For Which Bismarck Promptly
Sends 1t Home and Appeals to the
Country Sad Incident of the Irish
Struggle-wnriike Purchases.
BERLIN, Jan. l5.-Prince Bismarck's mill
tary bill was rejected at Fridays session Of
the reichstag. the amendment of Herr vor
Stauffenburg, tho Liberal leader, being
adopted by vote of 1856 yeas to l54 nays.
The original measure was designed to be in
operation for seven years, while Herr Stauf-
fsnberg'S amendment limited the time &c
three years. The result was announced amid
intense excitement That the vote would be
close was generally believed; that the chan
cellor's wishes and demands would be disre
garded was considered outside the bounds of
probability, The great strength of opposi-
ton amazed the princes supporters and sur
prised the Liberals themselves. Prince Bis
narck was present when the vote was an
noun eed. He at once carried out the threat
he has repeatedly made since the measure has
been under discussion and read an imperial
decree dissolving the reichstag. For sew
eral hours previous to and during the prog
ress of the vote the streets in the vicin-
ity were crowded with persons awaiting the
announcement of the result. When Prince
Bismarck left the reichstag and reached the
street, after reading the imperial message
dissolving the reichstag, be was received by
the people with cheers and shouts of ap-
proval, which were kept up as he passed
along and until be disappeared from view.
An imperial decree was issued in the after
noon fixing Feb q for the holding of gen
eral election for members of the new reichz-
tag. The political campaign is already b.
ing carefully planned and eagerly discussed,
and the possible change in the political COM
plexion of the new body is the general topic
Of discussion. 1t is expected that the emper-
ror will inaugurate the campaign by issuing
decree reciting the merits of the govern
ment's demands and the dispute in the reichs-
tag arising out of them.
LONDON, Jan. I5-The news of Prince Bis
marck's defeat caused mucu surprise and con-
siderable excitement in official circles and in
the clubs The cbancellor's course from this
on will be watched with interest and anxiety.
The general belief is that he will have the
fear of French aggression whispered through
out the empire in the hope of creating patri-
otto outburst that will sweep away the hostile
majority in the reichstag. He will thus
doubtless gain his point, but there is grave
danger that he will bring upon Europe the
very thing which he pretends TO desire to
guard against-a devastating war
